I strongly recommend the basic, plain weave fabrics for most kinds of petticoats.
To reminisce of yesteryear’s styles, let’s go over modern day fabrics that will work well for petticoats for the historical impression or dress-up box.įor simplicity and ease of reference I’ll break this discussion down into fibers & weaves and give suggestions for what time periods they are recommended. First, for historical costuming they provide much needed under-structure to support the silhouette second, they are one of the easiest garments to make (relatively) for those just getting started in antique fashions and third, they are just plain FUN! And frilly always brings out the delicate feminine side. If you’ve followed me for even a bit, you know I strongly support the wearing of petticoats. Petticoats are those undergarments that invoke romantic notions, feelings of nostalgia, and visions of swirling colors from Oklahoma!
